[sky25]

hihi,

nd to know if all of u r taking d rom package fr yr BS or DIY?

thinking of getting d rom package fr empire..

 

[suetan]

Hi sky> tinking of getting the rom package fr jess coutre cos my AD still far, in case I change my mind along the yrs. If I can find a dress before mid july, then I will find mua.

 

[sky25]

queenie30,

when do u hav to produce yr marriage cert? upon collection of keys? we bought at resale flat at bt merah but d agent tol us better to produce d cert during d 1st appt..

 

[zenth]

Sky,
Got this from the HDB website.

"Where the buyer is applying with his fianc¨¦e to form a family nucleus, they must register their
marriage with the Registry of Civil or Muslim Marriages within 3 months from the date of taking
possession of the resale flat. However, if the buyer is applying for the CPF Housing Grant, the
marriage certificate must be produced on or before the date of completion."

 

[zenth]

Sky,
Looks like you can take possession of the flat first and produce the marriage cert within 3 months. Appears to be applicable to new flats too.

 

[annabelle]

hi gals,

weekend here again... hai... but i stuck in office... sian... later going to collect my wedding bands liao... heehee... so fast they told me 2 weeks but yesterday call me say can take already... so happy...

hmmm will be going to White Link tmr to search for my rom gown... hope they have nice ones... but e MUA i wanted is booked already so have to use another one instead lor... so sad...

wah they added new emoticons leh... so cute!!!

 

[sky25]

think we taking d grant so hav to produce on 1st appt..

 

[zenth]

Ladies, can you take a break and let this old man catch his breath. Hehe

Sulynn> Congrats on getting a place you like. Mai tu liao!

bear> Hahah thanks for letting me know. You can also consider wearing bikini for the zoo to give yourself a safari type of look.

You seen the invitation cards from BH? I have not seen it yet and don't know how it looks like. Is he going to provide printing?

queenie> Great, can arrange to take pictures onboard a yatcht? That would be really nice?

Hi Sky, forgot to say welcome just now. Welcome to this thread! It will
be nice to have it at the chalet. Have you book the chalet yet? If you have decided to use empire for your actual day, can get the gowns from your bs loh. It may be easier as compared to diy.

Welcome Cindy and Anise! Anise, will you be doing your ROM at ROM?

Looks like a couple of you want to lose weight sia. Jiayou and don't skip meals ay!

 

[anise]

hi gals...

hmm dose feelings of getting rings real excited ya.. mi oredi got mine.. hmmm so fast u going down to white link to choose rom gown.. i m tinkin of going down maybe 1 months before the date... but worried pple taken all those nice one ;(

For HDB, as long as before collection of key den must produce cert

 

[zenth]

anna, I don't think it is compulsory to have a meet up session before your ROM.

However i would be advise you to check with your parents what are their preferences since after ROM, you and your fh are legally married.

We did have a meet the parents session over lunch mainly for ROM. They wanted to get my fw' parents consent. Covered alittle on the requirements for AD nd will discuss further when the date is closer.

Congrats on getting your wedding bands..so happy for you. I'm still searching for mine. I'm sure the other mua will be as good as the one u wanted, if not better! so don't be sad....

 

[joyousonline]

hi DH and all,
yeah usually is u need to show them ROM cert after getting keys (new flats i mean)..but then some people they also delay...soome gave reasons to HDB saying they need to select a date that is auspicious etc..think there is such a thread in Home and Deco...so no need to b so on the dot..haha

hi welcome anise and cindy!!

 

[joyousonline]

hi dazed, here it is!!
it starts from as low as $128 for weekdays, $168 on Saturdays & $198 on Sundays (applicable to Singaporeans/PR) at the deluxe suite and an additional $80 for the private suite, $100 for the garden (All 3 venues with ROM Premises).
The package includes arrangement of solemniser, venue and a canister.They conduct marriage solemnisation on Saturdays, Sundays and Public Holidays within ROM's premises .

 

[annabelle]

hmmm DH think not meeting up with both sides parents liao too mah fan... than have to fork out $$ again... hope this MUA also good lor... dun wanna look like clown on my rom day...
